NATURAL rubber is a significant contributor to the global rubber industry. Many rubber-based products depend on natural rubber for quality and performance. In fact, some products, such as aviation tyres, depend fully on natural rubber for their manufacture.

Over the years, the world has at times experienced uncertainties in the supply of natural rubber. Much of the uncertainties have been attributed to the price volatility of natural rubber.
